READ THIS: Here’s what’s coming up on DAYS.
When Kate (Lauren Koslow) discovered Vivian (Louise Sorel) in Philip’s (John-Paul Lavoisier) room, the enemies’ bickering ended in a handshake when Vivian offered her a cut of the Kiriakis fortune. Kate later went to the pub and considered informing Jada (Elia Cantu) that Vivian was sneaking around Salem.
Philip confronted Xander (Paul Telfer) once again, even handing him Victor’s gun to shoot him, but Xander went a different route by revealing to Philip that he told Kate he was back in town.
Tate (Leo Howard) admitted to Holly (Ashley Puzemis) that he’d spent time with Sophia (Madelyn Kientz), leaving out that they slept together, and Holly told him she wants him back.
Brady (Eric Martsolf) spent some quality time with his daughter, who expressed her hope that he and Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) would get back together.
Kate showed up at the SPD and tipped Jada off about Vivian’s whereabouts before summoning Philip to the pub and assuring him she took care of Vivian.
Rafe (Galen Gering) reunited with Javi (Al Calderon) and revealed to him and Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) he planned on proposing to Jada. When he called her, he overheard an altercation between her and Vivian that ended in a gunshot.
Tate confided in his dad about his girl trouble and admitted he slept with Sophia, while Sophia and Holly came face-to-face and the two had it out over Tate. Later, Tate went to the Kiriakis Mansion and admitted he wants to take Holly back, but told her that he slept with Sophia and decided he needed to see where things go with her first.
After Rafe heard the gunshot, he hurried to Vivian’s room and found Jada fine and Vivian unconscious on the floor. Jada explained that Vivian tried grabbing her gun and it went off during the struggle, but Vivian simply hit her head on the table and wound up unconscious. After Vivian was brought to the hospital and placed under arrest, Rafe decided to pop the question to Jada right then and there.
When Aaron (Louis Tomeo) visited Mark (Jonah Robinson) in jail and tore into his brother over his crime, Mark revealed everything to him, then Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) admitted she’s his sister.
Clyde (James Read) called Chad and made a request of him that Chad decided to keep a secret from Steve (Stephen Nichols). Later, Chad asked EJ to drop the charges against Cat.
Ivan (Ivan G’Vera) sneaked around Stefan’s (ex-Brandon Barash) room and packed his suitcase before planting a forged letter to EJ (Dan Feuerriegel). Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) arrived to speak with her soon-to-be ex-husband and found the letter, which EJ read and revealed Stefan left Salem and can’t forgive either of them.
Stephanie (Abigail Klein) warned Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins) about being a homewrecker, referring to her troublesome Body & Soul character. Later, Johnny (Carson Boatman) and Chanel (Raven Bowens) made up and went out to the pub, where they ran into Joy and Nancy (Patrika Darbo).
After Leo (Greg Rikaart) decided to write his own love interest – a handsome man who walks into the bar – Javi walked into the bar and sat down beside him. The two began hitting it off until Gabi warned her cousin to stay away from Leo.
